Getting to know your washing
machine
Before doing anything else your should get
to know your washing machine perfectly. To
help you recognise all the different devices
and elements which your machine is equip-
ped with, we have included some dia-
grams. These can be found at the back of
the BOOKLET, inside the back cover. Please

understand the text and to visually locate all
the elements which make up your machine.
Preliminary warnings
Installation
It is essential that the installation of your
WASHING MACHINE be carried out in
accordance with current standards.
Specific installation instructions can be
found in the INSTALLATION MANUAL.
Before starting your washing machine, it is
absolutely essential to remove the INTER-
NAL FIXING SCREWS, used for transit. To
do this, consult the installation manual.
Technical specifications table
Stuck of your WASHING MACHINE, you
will find a TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
TABLE, which gives the technical and iden-
tification information for your machine.
THIS LABEL SHOULD BE CONSULTED
BEFORE MAKING ANY ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS.
In order to preserve the environment, your
washing machine is equipped with a sys-
tem which is capable of adapting to diffe-
rent conditions of use (amount of clothes
and type of fabric), there by ensuring an
optimum level of water and power with the
same wash and rinse results. This means
that during the washing process, the
amount of water you observe through the
hatch may seem low.
Moreover, for the same reason, some
models have a patented system by means
of which the drum turns faster than normal
for a short amount of time (2 seconds) only
in the wash programmes for normal fabrics
(cotton, linen, ect.). This occurrs between
six and eight times during the whole wash.
